loyola maroon November 3, 1972 Vol. XLIX no. 9 Finance coin flips two ways By CHUCK BAUERLEIN Loyola's Second Annual Fund Raising Drive was started last week with the appropriate encouraging speeches and a handsome slide show for the alumni. At the faculty breakfast last Thursday, however, it appeared obvious that there were two sides of the coin being tossed. Dr. Lowell Smith, dean of the college of business administration, and Jerry P. Leibman, the campaign chairman, spoke quite optimistically regarding Loyola's financial situation. Dr. Don Brady of the drama and speech department and one of the faculty representatives who were gathered at the breakfast to promote the drive, questioned the coordinator's optimism and said flatly: 'The Loyola family doesn't exist." $750,000 GOAL The campaign last year earned $500,000 for Loyola, a figure substantially over the original goal. This amount was garnished despite the announcements that intercollegiate sports would be discontinued and that there would be no substantial faculty raises this year. The goal this year was set at $750,000 while the Very Rev. President Michael Kennelly, S.J.'s personal goal is one million dollars. Leibman cited a $10,000 donation made by Chevron Corporation several weeks ago as a sign that the university's money situation is on the upswing. "In the past, Chevron had given us token gifts," Leibman said. "Last year they raised it to $5,000 because we were doing something about the situation ourselves. This year the proof of the pudding came when the president of Chevron personally presented Fr. Kennelly with a check for $10,000, saying that Chevron had doubled the amount because Loyola 'appeared serious about staying in business,' with their fund raising drive of last year." Leibman claimed that 80 to 85 per cent of Loyola faculty and staff had participated in the fund raising drive last year. "It is amazing," he said, "how impressed the business community is when they hear that 80 per cent of the Loyola faculty and staff participated." DON BRADY: THE LOYOLA "FAMILY" DOESNT EXIST Court decides against Newbrough By ANNEWITTE Because of a verdict handed down by the Student Court Thursday, there will not be a Student Union representative at large this semester until the Student Union Constitution is amended. According to the present constitution, elections for the representative must be held during Student Union week, which took place in October. Through a mistake of the union, though, the constitution was not consulted and the elections were not held that week. The controversy stemmed from a confusion in election procedures. Usually the candidates must file a petition with 50 signatures before a deadline set by the union board. But this time there were two deadlines: October 19, as stated on the petition, and October 20, as on the posters hanging in Danna Center announcing the elections. The only petition to be filed was submitted on October 20, by Joe Newbrough, the plaintiff in the case. The Student Union board adhered to the October 19 deadline and refused to recognize his petition as valid. Then the board decided to reopen the nomination period for candidates. A temporary restraining order was placed on the Student Union by the Student Court, because Newbrough maintained that his petition was valid. Newbrough contended that since he had fulfilled all the requisites for running for the position, the union should not be allowed to reopen Ihe nominations. However, before the board received the temporary restraining order, one nomination had been accepted. During this second qualification period Mary Schoenberger submitted her petetion. After the union received the court order halting the second nomination period, Ms. Schoenberger filed suit against the union in order to to have the elections held, maintaining that her petition was as valid as Newbrough's. In Tuesday's court session, the counsel for Newbrougli, law school senior Ron Macaluso, argued that Newbrough had followed the directions on the Student Union posters and that therefore his petition was valid. He further insisted that Newbrough should not be punished for the mistakes of the Student Union.
